Bundoora Homestead (1391 words) |
 | Situated in an area reputedly named by the first European settlers after the Aboriginal word 'Bundoora', meaning: the favourite haunt of the kangaroo, the property consisted of 606 acres (245 hectares) of land, and is part of the territory of the Wurundjeri-william clan. |
| Bundoora Convalescent Farm, as it became known, was the first psychiatric facility established in Victoria to meet the specific needs of returned servicemen. |
| The former Bundoora Park stables, stud master's cottage and flsmith's shop and sheds, which stand well to the west of the mansion, survive in the custody of the Preston Historical Society and are used for historical museum purposes. |
